It's no easy task to find happiness in a society established on insatiable desire. So what is it that we need to do to escape never-ending desire and find happiness? The answer is to have a thankful heart... There are no conditions needed for appreciation. We can be thankful for life and for our freedom to move about.

I am extremely grateful that we got through Hurricane Ike without any complications. We were only out of power for 12 hours. The rest of the city was not so lucky. Millions are still without power and according to the power grid map, so should we also be. I do not know if its because we were mentally and physically prepared for the worst, if we paid our dues in Florida because we went without power there for weeks (after two separate storms) or if we were just plain lucky. Either way, we are extremely grateful, and my heart goes out to those who do not have electricity, and especially to those who lost their homes this weekend.
